                         NASSLLI04

                    June 21-25, UCLA, Los Angeles

            (North American Summer School in Logic, Language
                    and Information 2004)

                     CALL for PROPOSALS

    The third NASSLLI (after a successful start with NASSLLI02 in
    Stanford and NASSLLI03 in Bloomington) will be held at UCLA,
    June 21 - 25, 2004. The summer school will consist of a number
    of courses and workshops, selected on the basis of the proposals.
    Proposals are invited that present interdisciplinary work
    between the areas of logic, linguistics, computer science,
    philosophy and artificial intelligence, though work in just one
    area is within the scope of the summer school if it can be
    applied in other fields.

    Submission Details:
    Submissions should indicate
    1) person(s) and affiliation
    2) type of event (one week course or workshop, 2 hours a day)
    3) an outline of the course up to 500 words
    4) an indication of whether special equipment is needed to
            teach that course (beamer, computer ...)
    5) a statement about the instructor's experience in teaching
            in interdisciplinary settings
    6) expected costs (whether you want to be paid hotel and/or travel,
            or whether you are able to find funding)

    Final Material:
    We expect material for the actual courses at least *one month*
    ahead of the conference if harcopies of any material are to be
    made available by us.

    Financial Details:
    A course may be taught by one or two persons. Conference fees are
    waived for all instructors. However, we are only able to pay for
    the full travel and expenses of one instructor per course. If two
    persons are lecturing, they may share a lump sum paid for both.
    Workshops are more complicated, and a proposal for a workshop
    should include a plan to obtain some outside funcing for the
    speakers.

    Important Note:
    To give us an idea about the number of submissions, we would like
    you to email us within two weeks in case you are interested in
    submitting a proposal. This will not commit you to actually
    submit one.

    Deadline for submission:
    31.01.2004

    Dominique Sportiche, UCLA, chair
